Learn Latin from the Romans: A Complete Introductory Course Using Textbooks from the Roman Empire

Autor Eleanor Dickey
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 iun 2018
Learn Latin from the Romans is the only introductory Latin textbook to feature texts written by ancient Romans for Latin learners. These texts, the 'colloquia', consist of dialogues and narratives about daily life similar to those found in modern-language textbooks today, introducing learners to Roman culture as well as to Latin in an engaging, accessible, and enjoyable way. Students and instructors will find everything they need in one complete volume, including clear explanations of grammatical concepts and how Latin works, both British and American orders for all noun and adjective paradigms, 5,000 easy practice sentences, and over 150 longer passages (from the colloquia and a diverse range of other sources including inscriptions, graffiti, and Christian texts as well as Catullus, Cicero, and Virgil). Written by a leading Latin linguist with decades of language teaching experience, this textbook is suitable for introductory Latin courses worldwide.

Recenzii

'Throughout the book, the student receives clear, understandable grammatical explanations … One particularity of this book - one that distinguishes it from other approaches - is that it uses authentic texts. From the beginning, the reader/student is introduced to texts that cannot be found in other textbooks - texts that offer interesting glimpses into life in Rome. … This book - used with the help of a teacher - will certainly serve its purpose well: it conveys the necessary linguistic structures, helps the student acquire reliable proficiency, and provides a many-sided picture of Ancient Roman culture.' Harald Weydt, Pragmatics Reviews
'The book is very well researched … thoughtfully arranged, and extremely interesting … Learn Latin from the Romans will surely satisfy its intended users …' Katarzyna Ochman, CENSURAE LIBRORUM
